Chapter 646: Three Lives and Three Promises (9)
The grandson died, and the government and the opposition were suspicious.
Empress Wu ordered Hengguo Gongchun official Zhang Yizhi to thoroughly investigate the case of the murder of the grandson, supervised by the right minister of Xin'an County Gongwen Chang, and wiped out the nine clans of Dali Temple Shaoqing Lin Yidi, and the prison of Dali Temple was all beheaded and confiscated.
Li Chongjun, the king of Yixing County, led the Luozhou pastor, and took the right policy as the master of Wang Wenwu of Yixing County.
Luozhou is where the divine capital Luoyang is located, the state pastor of the land of Dugi, and there is the second minister of the court as the master, although he did not canonize the grandson on the surface, but Li Chongjun's status is obviously different from the ordinary imperial grandson, and quickly filled the vacancy left by Li Chongrun.
Empress Wu took extremely swift action to quell the political turmoil after Li Chongrun's death, and gave official explanations to all parties on the surface, and no matter how much dissatisfaction and anger there was, it could only turn into a dark tide.
The day after the decree was issued, Wang Zhiben, the right Shilang of Shangshu Province, issued a document stating that the general order was in charge of the Si Ya Office and the 16 Guards of the Nanya, and the military patrol of the Nanya was temporarily over, and it was restarted when the time was right.
This action is intriguing, and all kinds of rumors and rumors are flying around.
The forces of the government and the opposition have gone around privately to discuss a lot, and in the dark rooms of various secret rooms, the movements of the power and strategy have been broken and crushed, and the context has gradually been sorted out.
The reason why Quan Ce thought about Li Xian and Li Dan of the Li royal family and Wu Chenghei Wu Sansi of the Wu royal family, these four heavenly kings did not pretend to be suspicious, and even had a lot of resistance, but they had a long-term vision, and they crossed the second generation of the royal family and directly put their eyes on the third generation.
Li Xian's son Li Chongrun, Wu Chenghei's son Wu Yanji, are very friendly with him, Wu Sansi's son Wu Chongxun, also has a lot of dealings with him, to a hundred years after the martial arts, no matter who ascends to the throne, Quan Ce can quickly adjust his position and participate in the next generation's big position game, considering his age, this is also the most suitable choice.
Acting in this way is in line with the deep impression of the scheming of Quan Ce, which will not arouse the hostility of the other party because the party is attached to one side, and can be neutral with the bare heart and win the wholehearted trust of the military queen on the dragon chair.
In the past, there was no need to avoid too many taboos, but Li Chongrun died suddenly, and he lost his long-term political support, so he had to consider avoiding suspicion, changing his way of doing things, and no longer determined to change and forge ahead bravely.
"I can't say, right minister, I'm also discouraged."
Someone made a faint voice, and there was silence all around.
Quan Ce is only too old to be a weak crown, and he is already the leader of the country, for the country and the people, full of merits, fighting for power, step by step, never retreating, but this time, it is a gloomy stop.
I don't know how embarrassing it is?
"It's no wonder that he, the emperor's grandson, the second of the country's capital, can die innocently in vain, even if it hits people's hearts, how can he resist the disaster of this situation?"
Countless pairs of sympathetic, regretful, or regretful eyes of the gods turned to the Xin'an County Mansion of Quan Ce, not only Quan Ce's henchmen and cronies, but also neutral courtiers such as Di Renjie and Tang Xiujing, who also came one after another, vaguely expressing their concern and support.
Quan Ce also conveyed his desire to cooperate in a timely manner, and received an enthusiastic response from Di Renjie, he originally appreciated Quan Ce, but he was afraid because he couldn't see his path clearly, but now he knows it.
Chenguang Garden, a small building in the middle of the lake, a study.
Quan Ce was dressed in plain clothes, standing by the window, playing with a crystal thin needle in his hand, shining with a crystal luster in the sun.
It didn't take long for the needles to disappear, leaving only a little water stain on the finger.
It was an ice needle, and the pinholes and poison that came inexplicably from the back of Li Chongrun's neck were given by this thing.
"Yunu, the rumors in the market, you can take pictures for the time being, don't be too frequent"
If you go too far and exaggerate yourself as a frustrated, you can completely get rid of Li Chongrun's death and your own involvement, arouse the heart of the same enemy, and integrate cohesion, but if it is spread too much, the mourning soldiers will become defeated soldiers, which is not what he wants to see.
"Yes, master" Yu Nu responded obediently, a little timid.
Quan Ce glanced back at her and smiled dumbly.
Because of his own assertions, he drugged Wei's and almost broke a big deal, Yu Nu imprisoned herself, Quan Ce intended to teach her a lesson, and it took more than ten days to let her out.
"Master, on the construction site of the Crane Mansion, the people are being requisitioned" The Yu slave saw Quan Ce's smile, and came to life, jumped in front of him with his hands behind his back, and said crisply, "The slave thinks, arrange some manpower, spread rumors among the people, what is the soul of the Crane Mansion, every time the cultivation reaches a stage, you have to sacrifice the land god with human life, anyway, how to be frightened, so that they can't recruit people, what do you think?" ”
Seeing that she was full of interest, she kept talking, and Quan Ce had no intention of discouraging her enthusiasm, "Very good, you discuss it with your daughter, remember to act carefully, and don't leave traces"
Such small means, at best, can add a little disgust to the two brothers, the Empress Wu has repeatedly shielded the two of them, and even the death of her own grandson, she has not changed her original intention, obviously the grace has been firm, and it is not easy to be defeated.
"Yes, master" The jade slave answered loudly and ran out in a hurry.
After the jade slave left, Quan Ce's face slowly collapsed.
Li Chongrun died before the crown, according to the rites called early death, he was never married, and he had no children, and the funeral was simple.
Avoided in the palace, did not treat the funeral, stopped the spirit in the White Horse Temple on the outskirts of the divine capital, and was buried in Sanqi.
Today is the 27th day, the big day of the sacrifice, he will also go to worship, and the anxiety in his heart cannot be increased.
He accepted Shangguan Wan'er's suggestion and improved the road of attack, compared with the original intensity, in the face of the caution of the Empress Wu, the current situation can be regarded as returning to the political comfort zone, with plenty of room for manoeuvre and maneuver.
The price to be paid is, I am afraid, a lingering condemnation of conscience.
"Master, Her Royal Highness the Princess has arrived at the door, it's time to leave" Yao Tong was also dressed in plain white and came in.
Princess Yiyang went out of the city, and she had to pass through here, and she had made an appointment in advance to meet at Chenguang Garden.
Quan Ce walked slowly forward, and asked, "Youth should not be wasted, you are also over twenty-eight years old, I intend to wait for Fu Hui to pass the birth pass, so I will ask your father for marriage, with full courtesy, what do you think?" ”
Yao Tong shook his head without thinking about it, "The slave is unwilling, if the master does not dislike the slave, the slave is willing to serve the pillow seat, as for the name, it is just a matter of leisure, there is no need to worry"
Quan Ce was slightly surprised, and turned to look at her, "Are you stupid?" If you have no name and no points, you really serve me as a slave girl? Your father can't explain it."
"Slaves are not stupid" Yao Tong opened a confident and cunning smile, quite dazzling, "The slave's body is the master's sooner or later, and it can be given to the master at any time.
Quan Ce looked at her and waited in the study for a long time, Yao Tong knew all his secrets, and the future she was waiting for was the glory of reaching the peak with him.
"Maybe it's going to be a long time coming"
"Slaves are willing to wait"
